In the summertime of 2002, Shannon Leone Fowler, a 28-year-old marine biologist, was backpacking with her Australian fiancé, Sean, in Thailand. They were planning to return to Australia after their excursion to Koh Pha Ngan, but their ideas were tragically derailed whenever a box jellyfish - the most venomous canine on the globe - wrapped around Sean's lower leg, stinging and killing him in minutes as Shannon helplessly watched. Rejecting the Thai government bodies' try to label the loss of life 'drunk drowning', Shannon ferried his body home to his stunned family - a family group to which she out of the blue no longer belonged. Shattered and untethered, Shannon lay out on a journey to seem sensible of her reduction. From Oswiecim, Poland (the site of Auschwitz) to war-torn Israel, shelled-out Bosnia, poverty-stricken Romania, and finally Barcelona, where she got first fulfilled Sean years before, Shannon charted a way through sorrow towards recovery.
